fled in the District court to-day by c. NJ.
Lane, editor of the Anti-ProhiDition Cam
paign Journal, against the Houston and
Texas Central Railway Company for

left the city and reached q point on the
prairie between Houston and Hockey
ne rendered his ticket to the conductor.
The conductor refused to take the ticket
and stated that it had been tempered
with and the date changed from
June - to July q. The plaintiff
also alleges that the conductor was very
insulting and abusive, and finally forced
him to pay his fare to Hockey, the near
est station, at the rate OF cents per mile.
The ticket is claimed by the plaintiff to De
perfectly good, and issued by the company
in apparently good faith. The case will

NACOGDOCHEs, TEX, Aug. Our
town was thrown into Juror last night
about dark by the report of pistol shots
in the direction of w. f. Brantlys gro
Gerry store. ca arriving at spot it was
1)und that w c. Roberts, q citizen OF
Chireno, had been killed by Brantly.
Five shots were fired, two of which took
effect about the heart The evidence at
the preliminary trial trial to-day was
substantially as follows II seems that
on former occasion Brantly had paid
taxes for Mr.. Roberts and
had advanced him some small
amount of merchandise besides,
and in town Mr.. Roberts had given mis-
watch as collateral security for the
amounts advanced. The time run out
and BrantlY sold the watch TO get his
money. Roberts had accOsted Br3ntly
about the watch several times and yester-
day he was drinking and repeated the iu-
suit. Brantly told MIN several times TO
go out and not bother him any more
Finally Roberts started to 90 out of the
store, but as he did so he swore ct
Brantly. BraGtIy Immediately remarked
that he did not take that
from nybody and fired al Roberts Just as
he stepped out on the gallery. Roberts
wheeled around and advanced towards
Brantly, who was back in his store He
kept going towards and cursing Brsntly
until ne had received four shots from the
pistol when he fell ana expired Brantly
was given ball in the sum of $4,000 this
evening. The af4ir is greatly deplored
DY our citizens, as both parties seem to
be good pe1ceable citizens.

The L.. N. A. & C. is testing a patent smoke

The Toledo, Peoria e. Western company has

1t ia estimated that 300 miles of fence have

during the recent drought In most cases it is
old board fence, and will now be replaced by

The indications are promising for one of the

late disaster on the Toledo, Peoria & Western

The c.. w. g. MI. Deal.

WABASH, Ind. Aug. Let was announced
last fall that Ives s. Staynor had purchased
controlling interest in the Cincinnati, Wabash
& Michigan railway, and would take possession
at once. No change was made, and the only
sign OF the connection of the firm with the road
was the election of Ives and Staynor az directors
ut the annual meeting last spring. The mystery
is now explained by the statement of a gentle
man intimately connected with the road, who
says that Ives & Staynor made payment Of
$500, 900 on the stock held by j. H. Wade, Of
Cleveland, amounting to $l.200000 which was
purchased at about par value, but that the con-
troll of the road was withheld from the New York
gentlemen pending the payment of the balance
due on the stock. The Cincinnati. Wabash e.
Michigan was to have formed part of the Gin
cinnsti, Hamilton & Dayton's Chicago 81 Gin
ciunati line.

The Sale of c., I'll. & ID. Bonds.

NEW YORK, Aug. 16.--The Sun says: "It be-
gins to look as though those creditors of Henry
S. Ives & Co.. who propose to utilize the collapse
Of that firm to acquire control of the Cincinnati
Hamilton g. Dayton road at as cheap figure as
possible, were not going to have everything their
own way. There is a wide diversity of opinion
q to how the affairs of Ives e. Co. should be
managed. OF course, the money lenders. a
rule, perfectly satisfied to be paid off, and
they cannot, from their point of vie W, be paid too
quickly. But the creditor companies other than the
c., H. & d. going to to it that the equity
in the loans of Ives 81 Co., Is mad as large as
possible. It's share of the equity will revert to
them and besides getting some securities back,
that is about all they can hope to recover from
the wreck So far can be learned, there was
a good deal of skirmishing yesterday between.
the conflicting creditor interests. whic is quite
likely to lead to decisive action to-day. The
tact was developed Yesterday that the hypothe-
cation of 81 $50, 600 of Dayton & Chicago first
mortgage bonds was even more culpable trans
action than at first appeared These bonds were
authorized to take up an equal amount of notes
Issued in connection with the construction Of the
road. The bonds therefore not a first lien
upon the road, for the notes are still
outstanding; and besides this the au-
by the directors of the company and the
collation. of the bonds had been ordered. That
every one who has had anything to do with Ives
should be hurt IN pocket or reputation is not
surprising, hence will be surprised to
learn that the So, 000.0 900 Of c., FL. g. ID. bonds
which Ives succeeded in selling at 924. ostensi-
bly, for the company, but in reality for the benefit
of Ives g. Co., have not yet been marketed by
che purchaser. The purchaser was q pal of
Ives, who had to leave this State few years
ago account of little matter of rehypothe-
eating that caused good deal of disturbance
when discovered. The bonds being logged
